We use the College Reading and Learning Association's (CRLA) model for general tutor training with graduate students and faculty. We used their program as a model and added to it to fit our needs. CRLA offers three levels of training that results in the college or university's certification. After our tutors complete all three levels, they receive the university's certificate.

Can anyone recommend good training materials that target FACULTY Tutors? -- or perhaps an approach you use in training faculty tutors? I posed this question back in the Spring when we were just starting our center utilizing both Faculty and Peer Tutors. The consensus seemed to be to offer the same training. While the goals, general strategies, and "tutoring tools" would be the same for both faculty AND peer tutors, its seems to me that a slightly different approach to the training of faculty might be advantageous.
